Chernobyl On The Hudson

Potential disaster models reveal plume could reach levels nine times the radiation released at Fukushima

It has been nicknamed Chernobyl on the Hudson.
Lying just 34 miles north of New York City’s Central Park, the Indian Point Energy Center has been leaking the radioactive material known as tritium into the groundwater. On February 6, 2016 New York Governor Andrew Cuomo finally alerted the public to the potential catastrophe.
